Union Cabinet Minister Dr. Virendra Kumar has taken a unique step by putting up signs in his office in Tikamgarh, Madhya Pradesh, that strictly prohibit people from touching his feet. The poster displays the message, "Touching feet is strictly prohibited," and a stronger warning follows: "No work will be entertained for those who touch feet." This rule has surprised many visitors and raised curiosity, as it goes against the usual political culture in India, where touching feet is a common way to show respect to leaders.
